MAERSK NEWCASTLE against its type

Built in 2001, it is 7 years older than the median container ship on this register, which was built in 2008 (3,088 vessels with a known build year). At 26,626 gross tonnage it is smaller than 69% of the other 3,000 container ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 362 container ships here under the Singapore flag, 10.4% of the 3,495 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 761 other vessels here, 355 of them container ships. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Singapore as port of registry.

Its 13,385 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 18% below the median of 16,359 t among the 2,234 container ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 354.5 kg CO₂, 35% below the type median of 545.6 kg. It logged 4,727 hours at sea against a median of 3,155 hours for its type that year. 10.5% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for container ships was 3.2%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2019 (41,164 t) and the lowest 2020 (1,995 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 84 in 2018 to 82 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 2 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 1,503 of 1,838 qualifying container ships by EEOI, at the 82nd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.2; this vessel reported 27.7.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 482,687,703 tonne-miles over 37,760 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 66.6% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2021, 2022, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 25.2% while distance sailed fell 17.0%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 9.9%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.

Where the 2025 emissions occurred

Methane, nitrous oxide and EU ETS2025

Total CO₂ equivalent: 13,594 t
Methane (CH₄): 0.21 t
Nitrous oxide (N₂O): 0.76 t
Under EU ETS: 11,400 t, 85% of total

Laden voyages2025

CO₂ on laden voyages: 11,986 t, 90% of total
Fuel, laden: 3,807 t
CO₂ per nm, laden: 317.4 kg

The rest of the 2025 total was emitted on ballast legs or at berth.
